Shinn Estate also received an 89-point score from the Wine Spectator for their 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon, a wine that I've not tasted.

Juan Eduardo Micieli-Martinez,
winemaker at Martha Clara Vineyards, also let me know that Premium Wine
Group, the custom-crush facility where he makes MCV's wines has just received it's first screw-capping equipment and that many of MCV's wines will be bottled under screwcaps going forward.

Roman Roth, winemaker at Wolffer Estate and also Roanoke Vineyards, will be releasing his 2003 Grapes of Roth Merlot under
his own label this week. Roman made the wine with grapes sourced from
Sam McCullough's vineyard (Sam is the vineyard manager at Lenz Winery).
I'll be tasting it soon.

Jamesport Vineyards has also announced a barrel tasting of their 2006 and 2007 pinot noirs, and 2007 reserve sauvignon blanc on December 13. Tickets are $10. Visit their site for more details.
